Just a conceptual company with a grand vision but without any claims to notability or any substance to the article. I am also nominating the following related pages because it is just an unrealized concept/idea only:

- Comment Clearly, we have two different articles that are being nominated for two different reasons. I don't think there will be any dispute over deleting the unsourced stub about the corporation, but there would be larger discussion over the longer article about the unrealized concept/idea. I'm Changing the layout, including "find sources", to reflect this. Mandsford 17:30, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete both. The main article is about a proposal to build a very large cruise ship. I did find some references in reliable sources. A 1997 Cruise Travel magazine mentioned that this was an idea that "resurfaced" in 1996.[1] Other sources reappear from then to the present, all note that this is a "speculative" idea. Cruise Travel notes that it failed to obtain financing in 1998.[2] The bulk of the instant article is a verbatim statement of the plan taken from the official website, which raises a copyright issue. Given the fact that the plan for this ship has been kicked around for at least 15 years, this is crystal ball material, without any particular significance in history. The information in the article does not jive with the sources I found, all of which seem to suggest that this project is in indefinite hiatus and likely will come to naught. - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 17:11, 21 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

- Delete Sounds really cool, but unfortunately no notability is established.--Yaksar (let's chat) 01:23, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
